Pft, nah. I always want to try something new when it comes to making signatures.
For commission, I made the handwriting gif, I haven't done that at all, so it was an interesting experiment.
That took forever cause what I had to do was get a reference from a fancy calligraphy font that was for free, write it down so many times until I got it correct and consistent and then I recorded myself writing it so it was in the space of the canvas.. Well, I tried to, it didn't work as well handwriting it wise so I ended up just sketching it in as best I can, taking screenshots every so often and then putting it all together as a gif, removing the background and there we go.
That one little handwriting gif took close to 5 hours on it's own, maybe even more >.<
Sad thing is the bottom of the g is cropped. Ah well, can't win all the time. >.<

that's amazing! you must be really devoted to signatures, and i can tell since i have always taken a liking to your signature layouts.
a lot of the time i just try to look for official art, or gifs that are free to use.

Yes, thank you for the complements
It makes sense, to do that first. Sometimes I need to resort to doing that as a reference and re-draw the gif a bit, like in my sig, the smoke was based off a stock dustcloud gif, but I redrew it so it worked in a similar fashion, so it is a recontextualization from a stock dust cloud, which I can call my own >.<

My friend likes to make gifs like that! She does it by starting on the right hand side and erasing it piece by piece, saving the pictures as she goes. Then when she puts them in reverse order, it looks like someone is writing them rather than erasing them.

Ah xP
I have never done that method >.<
For that to work, it would have taken me a lot less time but I would be picky with the details down to the pixel >.<
I might do a tutorial on it one day when I get the time. I have just been way to busy ugh.

I've never been taught how to make handwriting gifs but it looks awesome!

I'll probs do a tutorial on it eventually >.< I'm gonna try Of the Falls's friends method to see how it goes. I am gonna guess it looks the same anyway.

And welcome Chrome!

Sorry for it being a while to reply, I couldn't quote and type on my phone

Do you sometimes find yourself making sigs when you're bored or when you should be doing something more important?



Haha, too often. I'll be sitting there with a really important piece of work due and I'll end up procrastinating and making myself a sig and being like "where did the time go?"

I'm the worst. hue.

yes when i'm busy
sometimes i'll be like "oh i'll just make a little text box" or "oh i'll just find some images for later" and then all of a sudden an hour has passed and i have a new (sometimes almost finished) signature

Yes... all the time I should be doing commissions or grinding FR or filming for my youtube. Or SLEEPING. I'm the worst.

Can somebody please give me some input on this signature before I go any further? I just don't want to keep working on something until I realized I should've scrapped it from the beginning. If people do like it, what do you suggest adding because I'm kind of stumped.
